  1. I found another 10-14 grams in my museli just assumed it was negligible and I’ve looked at that box a million times for added sugars (nearly none for the one I eat) but ignored protein. 7 grams per serving and well I consume 1.5-2 servings for breakfast. Add my milk and it’s pushing 35g for the morning. I cleared 115-120g I think yesterday. 40-50g of which was from whey.
  2. 80s… born in 43. But do tell your theory.
  3. I think Tech has no excuse if they can’t win the big 12 consistently. Yeah it’s in a shithole town but most towns in the big 12 are. Colorado, Utah, Arizona and Arizona state are different - maybe Houston and UCF - but the money and location - in Texas closer to Texas talent - even if the water tastes like dirt and the wind ruins everything should be a difference maker. But really, which of those other schools can compete financially with tech? I don’t have any inside knowledge but I’d bet none. I guess I’m looking at this the other way, tech will be a miserable failure if they can’t climb to the top of this league and be one of the top 2-3 if not the top team in the league for a sustained period of time.
  4. I mean I’m down with the CR hate to a degree but come on? It’s more like the Castro in SF … we liberal, loud and we are GAAAAAY!!
  5. At least it’s on the way to Colorado.
  6. surely you found something worth sharing at this "ass market" you went to?
  7. 26:00 mark, wait for it.... "everything you say makes sense!!! ...... my counter point? They're Texas A&M!! They go 8-4! 28:10 mark "If they were named East Texas State I could see 10-2."
  8. I don't remember the last time I ate cottage cheese. I honestly can't even remember what it tastes like. it looks gross though. so i'll keep it a mystery.
  9. he had way too much press on his way out from UNC back to Austin. btw, he reminds me of my dad, so believe me, I do everything I can to avoid looking at or listening to Mack.
  10. this system is so fucking stoopid then.
  11. 100 LLCs sounds like a fucking gun shot to the head. especially if/when the rules foreclose these asinine stupid loopholes.
  12. it's well known, all the animals in australia are venomous and prey on humans.
  13. and a team we play first week of the season i'd think. good info, i don't spend a lot of time thinking about the financing of college football teams, in a parallel universe I might go all in and want to be on the team but the universe i'm in it's a passing interest and other things tickle my strategic finance itch. but it's good to roll down the bowling alley with bumpers and learn a bit more this morning. thanks.
  14. i referred to it as the ballerina girl with the Lionel Ritchie play along to go with it.
  15. fair enough. from the cheap seats it looks like we will win more than we lose and be net benefactors from this system with the money all out in the open and above the table. salary cap type shit - the stuff Mack Brown has been talking about - is what will worry me, because that means the bag game comes back to be a differentiator without even the faux police force (NCAA) to scare folks, unless a new armed governing body takes over and there are real penalties for cheating.
  16. are we talking about QB play or our baseball teams historic approach to hitting? I is confused.
  17. this is what you want in a punter. dude has been roughed up a bit, kicked in the teeth even (no pun in tended). he ain't scared. shit he's got a lil gangsta in him with that smile saying come at me bro, I'll fuck your shit up. i like it.
  18. I may be a chick but I'm not a sandy vagina. I was not worried last year and thought to the hand wringers --> insert michael keeton jack off gif. I'm also not worried this next year, you can't be so fucking loaded that you add from the portal, add from NSD and then have no attrition of "good" players. it's just not possible.
  19. pretty much. I think his three big weaknesses are going to be: 1. miss reads some coverages with some bonehead soph starter type mistakes - we're fine as long as it's not wrong place wrong time. 2. pocket timing - run too early, not see an open guy bc of pressure, blind side hits because his clock is too slow. 3. throws too deep too often - for all the QE hate on the check down, we have such amazing athletes, the check down often is what keeps the drive going or puts you in manageable 3rd down spots. QE was great at that, maybe too great at times to the point that teams keyed on it, but I have feeling Arch will throw deep when the better decision was to check down. I think all of those can be overcome with less QB/RB turnovers, his mobility and deep threat which will open running lanes, and a better D than last year.
  20. his mobility alone would have eliminated the Ohio State sack, fumble, TD .... the A&M slide fumble, several others and several self sacks. if those fixes out number the blind side fuck ups, the poor reaction against top defenses with great coverages, and whatever other mistakes then we will be fine at the QB spot. then all we are left with is RB fumbles and Sark second half squats.
  21. I agree. And with all the talk about the OL their run blocking was atrocious at times, pass pro fell a part at times and QB mobility also contributed. I think Arch will makes those better, sum of the parts sort of thing. I do think he will have some timing issues in the pocket I think the game hasn’t fully slowed down for him yet, I think he will struggle with complex reads at times but FUCK what college QB doesn’t? As long as those aren’t at the absolute wrong time in the wrong game we will be fine.
  22. Btw I think my early stage muscle soreness which was at times debilitating was in part lack of protein, I bet I was at 50g or less a day.
  23. My alt breakfast is plain Greek yogurt with fruit nuts and seeds. So I alternate the two. The milk v yogurt protein content is a bit different but only by a few grams. I think I’ll be fine I just don’t see how I get there with out powder or protein bars. I hate hate hate artificial sweeteners and have a decent whey protein without them but I probably need a better bar and a flavorless powder, right now it’s just chocolate flavor (like a semi sweet or unsweetened chocolate bar or cocoa powder) which is fine but has limited use. 120 cal for 24g tho so it’s not a calorie dense option.
  24. Wouldn’t surprise me if the portal finally catches up to us next year and we lose a few we didn’t want to lose. I think once you’re stacked at every position it’s inevitable.
  25. He can have a bad game and we still contend for a championship. I was not and am not a QE hater but he had bad games and Texas made the semis. Arch is likely to have an even better defense to support him. All he really needs to win it all is a smidge more luck than QE (let’s just say less TOs at the QB and RB position / or hell no brain lapses on screens by the D before halftime) and he’s in the NC game.
